It was a once in a lifetime bonding experience for my daughter and I as our Harbor 20 placed 1st in the regatta.

Wow, you do have a colorful life. Sailing was huge and still is out here. My high school sailing, surfing, swimming, and water polo teams were exceptional. Lots of Olympian Medal winners. I used to wind surf and remember those Hobie twin hull catamarans? Used to love that boat. The Hobie Cats. I have a handful of friends that live in the Balboa Penninsula and on Balboa Island. Great beach bum buddies. They live the life. Fun in the sun and a huge trust fund.

Yes, I love the Hobie as well. I have owned several Hobies along with along with other cats - Tornadoes, Nacras, Sol Cat, etc. Fifty five boats thus far in most all configurations of sail and power. You, being from the Newport Beach area, will have seen many Duffys (picture attached). I picked her up along with another Harbor 20 (named "One More Time II") in Newport Beach year before last. You are really blessed to live in that part of the country.

I certainly have sen plenty of Duffys. They in are in the harbors, canals and everywhere in the boat yards along PCH. Wow, you are truly a boat buff. My real estate buddy from South Laguna bought a really nice 55ft yacht when the economy was at its peak. Such a beautiful boat when we go on surf trip. Only thing I don't like about him is everytime(and this never fails) we score a fanatical wave he blows that loud horn and it just echoes through the barrel(tube ride)

^^^ Steven thanks buddy! Yeah man I was lucky to have my GT2, it's a Eurspec car one of a few in this country, instrumentation stalks are even in German! She is brutally fast! The tranaxle is a custom revised RSR gearbox - Porsche Motorsport complete unit (a little loud but awesome to drive!) the previous owner who is a friend of mine and chief instructor for Audi club whom I'd known for 4 or 5 years since we both instructed for him at Audi and PCA had it speced out and put in, he wanted to stay factory original with the car and that was an option for the Euro GT2, so it remains an all original car, but that box runs $23K!! I was shocked when I got all the documentation with the car, the amount of money for the motorsport equipment! Other Porsche motorsports parts are on the car as well, differential, hardened halfshafts, dogbone arms, driveline/clutch assembly, engine bits...and more... etc...all factory Motorsport upgrades, the car was ordered with extreme attention to detail and awareness for keeping the integrity and originality of the GT2 within the marque.
